MOSCOW (AP) -- President Vladimir Putin's spokesman said Thursday that Russia's support for Syrian President Bashar Assad is not unconditional, but that the country demands a full investigation of the suspected chemical attack on a rebel-held province in Syria before the United Nations takes any action.

I guess McInsane is going to get his way in Syria.

Looks like we are going to war.

A voice of reason here.

Syria didn’t have the weapons to do this atrocity? Or what?

Doesn’t make sense that Assad would have done this thing? Where’s the careful analysis?

If Iran tells Russia to save Assad, they will do it. Besides. they want a Mediterranean port.

Silly Russians! You don’t need to investigate. Who cares about facts?

He’s been using chemical weapons for quite some time, mostly chlorine gas. If you are getting away with it, why not use it? It’s very effective and doesn’t damage the infrastructure.
And Syria never joined the Chemical Weapon Convention.

What the hell are you talking about? The Russkies just backed down based on one Trump tweet.

Wow. Some people can’t see the forest for the trees.

Remember the “original” axis of evil that Bush invoked after 9/11.

Axis of Evil - Iraq, Iran, and North Korea

Iraq was taken care of by Bush. Obama beat around the bushes (sometimes literally), but kept the fire burning in the middle east. Iran and North Korea will be taken care of by Trump?

Just have big league doubts about Assad being the guy who is responsible for anything that happened.

I agree. Russia likely already knows what happened and isn’t concerned about US interference. Of course on the other hand.....

The whole "Axis of Evil" was a pile of crap.

North Korea was only included in the group because Bush didn't want to make it look like the U.S. was targeting Islamic countries.

After reading the Bio. of Assad, he didn't want to be in political life, he wanted to be in the medical field, but his brother who was being groomed by the father was killed in an auto accident, so in went Assad, after going through what we would call ‘Academy training’...

I don't know if he is an insane as his father was, I don't know if he ‘gassed his people the other day’, I wasn't there, but based on what President Trump tweeted out, I would say we have ‘prevented war’ right now...

I would like to see a meeting of Putin, Assad and President Trump with their people to see if what President Trump said in his rallies: “Let's fix Syria and let the people go home” and feeling that a meeting as I have just said I would like to see would maybe prevent another war and some peace in a very volatile world right now...lets see what President Trump is doing before we elect to go to war and kill more of our sons, daughters, fathers, brothers, husbands and wives...

I have YUGE doubts Assad did a damned thing here. It was NOT in his interest; Trump specifically mentioned gassing people as a reason for us to enter and try and boot out Assad.

Miraculously, days later, children -- one reportedly resembling Baron Trump -- were gassed.

Wow - Nikki Haley’s impassioned plea (and President Trump) appears to had an impact on the Kremlin’s position. It was powerful.

CIA/Mossad fund and carry out ALL the false flags to force world chaos so that their NWO can grow up out of the ashes.

They are the jackboots of the globalist elite sodomites who want to erase Christianity (all freedom/individualism/Rule of Law) off the entire earth. The globalists were/are the Bolsheviks.

To destroy worldview they have to have TOTAL control of ALL curricula (which they have) and TOTAL control of the press (Operation Mockingbird)-—they owned all MSM by 1915. AND total control of all schooling—so all little children could be warped and brainwashed to be inside their Mind Control system where Slavery is Freedom and Up is Down and Sodomizing others is “Good” and “Normal” so all reason and Natural Law (science) could be erased in minds of children and the Christian worldview made impossible for adults.

Mind Control is the endgame. Fichte, 1810, “destroy free will and make children so dumb and ingnorant they will believe ANYTHING stated by the State-—like Sodomy is a virtue (born to sodomize) and Slavery is Freedom and Up is Down and “Snow is Black”.” Without Virtue formation (Christianity), there is no Age of Reason, no logic, no individualism-—only collective “group (non) think” ignorant tribal minds.

I lean towrd the explanation advanced by the Russians that a Chemical factory located near a populated are was blown up and the isis Chenocals were released. This is extremely easy to prove and the Russians are exactly right, that instead of everyone running around jumping on foundless conclusions let’s have an INVESTIGATION!!!Then we will have the facts. Let me tell you why it is so very simple to check out this destroyed warehouse. The half life on Sarin/Chloerine compound is Possibly months .”Sarin without the residual acid removed degrades after a period of several weeks to several months.” wiki.
I propose a joint Russo/American scientific team check the residual remains of the Warehouse and we will know. If we don’t do this it will be reminiscent of the ignoring of the UN weapons inspectors in Iraq and we know where that got us.
Also, I have seen very disturbing video of White Hats staging the attack scene with perfectly well people who then lie on their backs for photos, . Now I am not a Sarin gas experts but I do occasionally stay in Holiday Inn Express. I surmise that human contortions and excrement that emanates from sarin gas exposure is far too graphic for this site or any other. I understand you swallow your tongue. You dont lie on your back with people walking around you NOT IN HAZMATS? Something wrong with those pictures. SO lets actualle INVESTIGATE before we conflagrate!!
